File Server Capabilities - requiring re-authentication or similar

[Guest Dan]

I've been scouring website after website on what seems to be an easy fix.

 

Is there a way to force reauthentication when connecting to a server? We

originally thought of seeing if there was a way to place a secondary password

on a share but didn't know how that would affect the Mac clients in our

company.

 

The situation is this- Mac and Windows clients connect to an AD file server

(2003) for both their personal shares and Dept. shares. Some department

shares are quite sensitive and so we need those shares to ignore any

previously created token and force the user to log in again.

 

Is there some sort of policy that can be applied to the share? Does anyone

know of any 3rd party software that can do this if its not natively supported

(must work for both Macs and PCs).

 

I appreciate any responses.

If they are that sensitive, you might consider creating another domain for

this resource and only adding the people to the new domain, that need

access.

 

Another thought would be to encrypt the sensitive data. But with the Mac

clients I don't know.

 

Personally I haven't seen anything like what you are looking for.
